AUBURN, Alabama -- The Auburn women's basketball team is 5-0 at Auburn Arena but will face its toughest test of the season SuNenday against No. 22 Purdue.

The Tigers (6-2) and Boilermakers (7-3) tip off at 2 p.m. Admission is free for fans who bring a toy for Toys for Tots.

Auburn beat South Florida 62-45 on Wednesday after losing badly at Temple 11 days earlier.

"We're excited about the opportunity to play such a highly ranked team and see what we can do," Auburn head coach Nell Fortner said in a release. "It's always great to have those kinds of opportunities on your home court. We're looking forward to having a great crowd out here and giving us a great home court advantage."

Fortner served as Purdue's head coach in 1996-1997 and Auburn associate head coach Kerry Cremeans was an assistant with the Boilermakers from 1996-2003.

"We definitely have a fond place in our heart for Purdue," said Fortner. "That was my first head coaching job, and I hired Kerry there and then she stayed on for about seven years and won a national championship there in 1999 and played for another one in 2001."

The Boilermakers have lost two games in a row after beating No. 4 Texas A&M on Dec. 4.
